Leplì Outdoor 106x106 ottoman by Poltrona Frau in taupe braided rope and aluminum, Italian luxury design

Leplì Outdoor | Ottoman 106x106cm

Kensaku Oshiro

Starting from
€ 4.026

The Leplì outdoor pouf collection, designed by Kensaku Oshiro, originates from its successful indoor counterpart. It retains the organic shapes inspired by feminine fashion: a sinuous silhouette cinched by a thin rope braid. In the outdoor version of the Leplì series, Oshiro adds the woven motif that characterises the Sparkler collection of outdoor lamps: polypropylene strings that wrap around the aluminium rod structure and create a unique effect of transparency and lightness. Rising upwards, the hand-made weaving becomes increasingly dense until it becomes solid on the seating surface, which hides the elastic belt springs within. The pouf/stool is available in 3 colour combinations that match the colour of the rope and the structure. Light, comfortable and easy to move, the Leplì Outdoor stool is a passe-partout that interacts with the entire range of Poltrona Frau Boundless Living Outdoor Collections to furnish the lounge area of gardens, terraces, patios, poolside and ship decks with a distinctive identity.

Concept and Design

Leplì is a stool, bench and pouf. Kensaku Oshiro designs four versatile pieces with a strong identity. The designer draws on traditional Poltrona Frau processes and decorations, combining them with sartorial details borrowed from the world of fashion. Classic stitching and soft folds bring out the sinuous simplicity of the design. The voluptuous curves of the stool, in particular, are inspired by the female form and, like in a dress, a slender belt highlights her “waist”.

The Leplì Outdoor 106x106 ottoman by Poltrona Frau is designed for those who want to enjoy outdoor spaces with the same aesthetic and design attention usually reserved for interiors. Designed by Kensaku Oshiro, this generously sized outdoor ottoman combines visual lightness, comfort, and a strong formal identity, making it an ideal solution for those looking for a piece that can furnish the space while making the outdoor environment more welcoming. Its soft, organic shape, together with the woven structure that defines its design, makes it perfect for settings where a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere is desired.

 

Thanks to its generous size, this ottoman is particularly suitable for those who want to create a larger and more convivial lounge area. On a terrace, in a garden, or by the pool, it can be used as informal seating, as a place to stretch out the legs, or as a central element around which to build a freer and more welcoming outdoor composition. It is ideal for people who are not simply looking for an additional seat, but for a soft and generous element capable of immediately suggesting relaxation, spontaneous use, and a more fluid way of enjoying outdoor spaces.

 

One of its strengths is its ability to adapt to different outdoor settings. The Leplì Outdoor 106x106 ottoman is a highly compelling choice for panoramic terraces, covered verandas, contemporary gardens, patios, rooftops, and yacht decks, where it can help create relaxation areas with a visually light yet highly refined appearance. In settings of this kind, it responds well to the needs of those who want elegant but not rigid outdoor furnishings, capable of accompanying moments of socializing, reading, resting, or enjoying an aperitif with a discreet yet distinctive presence.

 

From a materials perspective, the powder-coated aluminum structure and hand-woven polypropylene rope make it suitable for sophisticated outdoor use, where durability must coexist with strong aesthetic quality. The woven pattern, which becomes denser in the seating area, contributes not only to the product’s visual identity but also to its comfort, concealing the internal support system with elastic webbing and providing a more welcoming support than its lightweight appearance might suggest. It is therefore particularly suitable for those seeking high-performance materials with a visually refined character, capable of bringing a high perceived level of quality outdoors.

 

The ottoman’s aesthetic language makes it especially suitable for spaces where the focus is on soft forms, weaving, textures, and natural tones. The available color combinations make it easy to integrate into Mediterranean, contemporary, or more naturally understated settings. It works especially well alongside low tables, outdoor sofas, lanterns, outdoor rugs, and seating with rounded lines, becoming part of a harmonious and highly welcoming composition. It is an ideal choice for those who want to visually warm up an outdoor area without sacrificing order and formal clarity.

 

Thanks to its versatility, the Leplì Outdoor 106x106 can be used in many different ways. In a private home, it can become the most informal and relaxed spot on the terrace; in a vacation villa, it can serve as shared seating for an aperitif area; in a hotel or resort, it can complete an outdoor lounge with an immediate sense of comfort and carefully considered hospitality. It is particularly well suited to people who see the outdoors as a true extension of the home and want spaces to be enjoyed slowly, where one can sit, talk, or simply pause naturally.

 

The product also finds a highly effective place in high-end professional settings. In boutique hotels, resorts, beach clubs, yachts, rooftop bars, and premium hospitality environments, this ottoman can help create outdoor spaces that feel softer, more recognizable, and more inviting. Its generous form and ease of integration into different compositions make it particularly useful for those designing relaxation areas that need to feel elegant yet approachable, carefully curated but never rigid. In this sense, it is an ideal solution for those who want to offer a more relaxed, visually striking, and comfortable outdoor experience.
